Nexus Studios director on her perspective as a Third Culture Kid , achieving dreams working for Disney and the responsibilities that come with privilege
As a storyteller, Neeraja Raj embraces her status as what she calls a “Third Culture Kid (TCK for short)”. Her upbringing was spread across cultures beginning with her parents’ Indian background. She spent the first part of her formative years in Jakarta, Indonesia and then high school in Dubai, her Bachelors in Ahmedabad, India and recently finished her Masters in the UK. “The ever-shifting backdrop of my youth has opened my mind from a very young age to a multitude of ideas and I believe that helps me with my storytelling, having been exposed to so many different environments and cultures,” she says.
